4 Chapter 1 Preface This document provides an example procedure for using ExpressCluster X to set up a cluster configuration that has two nodes (for duplication). ExpressCluster X is an NEC product that can be used to switch running processes between nodes in a duplicated system. In this document, a host system included in a cluster is referred to as a node. Supplemental information Upgrading an OS If the incorrect procedure is used to upgrade the OS on a cluster server, failovers might occur at unexpected times. In the worst case, this might damage the system. Only upgrade the OS in accordance with the procedure on the setup card. This also applies when applying a service pack. Application range This document describes ExpressCluster X 1.0 for Windows. ExpressCluster X is a registered trademark of NEC Corporation.

5 Chapter 2 Configuration Procedure This chapter provides a procedure for configuring a MasterScope SystemManager cluster environment. 2.1 Setting up ExpressCluster X This document assumes that ExpressCluster X is installed and that a cluster environment has been set up. For details about how to configure a cluster environment, also see the ExpressCluster X documents. * These documents can be downloaded from the following website: Creating failover groups For ExpressCluster X, nodes connected to the cluster are managed using units called failover groups (referred to as groups below). For details about how to create groups, see the relevant ExpressCluster X document (chapter 5 in the Installation and Creation Guide). Figure 2-1 WebManager 4

6 Setting up shared resources The following describes how to set up shared resources for a failover group. Here, the following shared resources are assumed: Floating IP address: Shared (mirror) disk: Y drive Service: Manager: MasterScope UMF Operations Manager_n (The italicized n represents a number.) Start Builder, and then select a failover group. (Here, select [MasterScope].) Figure 2-2 Group Properties Right click the group, and then select [Add Resource] from the displayed pop-up menu. The [Definition of a resouce] dialog box is displayed. 5

7 First, set up the shared disk. For [Type], select [disk resource] or [mirror disk resource], and then enter the group name of the shared disk in the [Name] text box. Set up the disk in accordance with the instructions in the dialog box. Figure 2-3 Definition of a resouce (Shared Disk) Next, set up the floating IP address. Right click the group, select [Add Resource] from the displayed pop-up menu, select [floating ip resource] for [Type], and then enter the group name in the [Name] text box. 6

8 Figure 2-4 Definition of a resouce (Floating IP Address) 7

9 Specify the floating IP address in the [IP Address] text box. Figure 2-5 Floating IP Address Addition Switching between connected nodes To switch between the active and standby nodes, use the following method. Open a command prompt, and then enter the following command: > clpgrp -m <group-name> * A direct command can be entered because the environment variable PATH is registered when ExpressCluster X is installed. The nodes can also be switched by right clicking the icon next to a group name displayed in the left WebManager pane and then selecting [Move] from the displayed pop-up menu. 8

11 2.2 Setting up MasterScope SystemManager Install the MasterScope SystemManager manager on the Windows computers to be used as active and standby servers. For details about how to do so, see the Release Notes supplied with the product. As described in 2.1 Setting up ExpressCluster X, the following shared resources are assumed: Virtual host name: vhost1 Shared disk: Y drive Notes * Install MasterScope SystemManager on the active server first, and then on the standby server. * It must be possible to reference the shared disk when installing the active server manager. * Use the same drive and folder as the installation destination for MasterScope SystemManager on the active and standby servers. * vhost1 is a host name that can be resolved to a floating IP address ( ). The following describes the procedure for installing the MasterScope SystemManager manager. First, start up the cluster from the active node, and then install MasterScope SystemManager on the active node. In the installation settings window, specify the following settings: Setting Value Remark Installation folder C:\Program Files\NEC\UMF\Operations Local disk path Local host name (optional) vhost1 Virtual host name Port for communication with agents Port for communication with the monitoring terminal Make the data area separate Yes Data area folder Y:\MasterScope_Share\MCO Shared disk path Install initial data Yes 10

12 \Manager\sg is automatically added to the data area folder, and settings that must be shared are stored here. After installation finishes, confirm that \Manager\sg has been created in the data area folder. Next, set up the MasterScope SystemManager manager on the standby node. In the installation settings window, specify the following settings: Setting Value Remark Installation folder C:\Program Files\NEC\UMF\Operations Local disk path Local host name (optional) vhost1 Virtual host name Port for communication with agents Port for communication with the monitoring terminal Make the data area separate Yes Data area folder Y:\MasterScope_Share\SysMgr Shared disk path Install initial data No (only on the standby server in the cluster) After installation finishes, change the service startup attributes on both the active and standby nodes. In the [Start] menu, click [Administrative Tools] and then [Services]. Next, stop the [MasterScope UMF Operations Manager_1] service, and then change the [Startup type] in the properties from [Automatic] to [Manual]. 11

13 Figure 2-7 Service Properties * If using the bundled DB, change the [Startup type] for the bundled DB service to [Manual] in the same way. 2.3 Set up the start setting of MasterScope SystemManager Set up the service. Right click the group, select [Add Resource] from the displayed pop-up menu, select [execute resource] for [Type], and then enter the group name in the [Name] text box. 12

14 Figure 2-8 Definition of a resouce (Service) 13

15 Specify the Windows service name for the product in the [Service Name] text box. Figure 2-9 Service Name Specification The service name varies depending on the node, so enter the following service name. Node Service Name Manager MasterScope UMF Operations Manager_serial-number * serial-number represents a number. Check the actual value in the Windows [Administrative Tools]. To set up the dependencies, clear the [Follow the default dependence] check box, and then add resources that depend on the floating IP address and shared disk. 14

16 Figure 2-10 Dependency Specification After specifying the settings, return to the failover group properties, and then confirm that the settings have been applied (by confirming that the window is like the one shown in Figure 2-2). * If using the bundled DB, add the resource for the bundled DB service in the same way. Set up the resource dependencies so that the bundled DB is dependent on SystemManager. Service name is [fdb_wfdbn]. n indicates a service number of 1 or higher. (The value is set during installation of MasterScope products.) This manual describes startup settings for failover groups. Separately set up service monitoring in accordance with the relevant ExpressCluster X document. This concludes the ExpressCluster X setup. 15

17 Chapter 3 Uninstalling SystemManager 3.1 Uninstalling SystemManager To uninstall SystemManager, perform the procedure described in the SystemManager Release Memo (relememo.pdf). 3.2 Deleting Files After uninstalling SystemManager, files and directories remain on the shared disk. Manually delete directories on the shared disk specified during installation.
